Title: Brand new and BAD from Ceronix? Post by: videokeno on July 04, 2013, 01:38:00 AM I'm having trouble with my Ceronix 2093 monitor. It kept losing focus and I would adjust the flyback to clear it up. Next time I turned it on same thing. Then I tried leaving it up for a few hours and the focus would get worse. I finally ran out of adjustment. Reading on here lead me to the conclusion that the flyback was giving out. So I thought this thing is so old and it probably has bad caps and who knows what else. I thought I could milk this thing along for a while if I just bought the whole board assy. (CPA4108). That means the whole works, even the controls for the front.
I put it all in today and turned it on and after about 5 minutes I got some popping and arcing from the neck of the tube. I moved the anode cap a little and it appears to have gone away. Now the damn thing powers up just fine, it looks great and then to fades into darkness after about 5 minutes. Did I get a bad board new from Ceronix??? It seems that way. But I really need some input on how to proceed further. Thanks! Title: Re: Brand new and BAD from Ceronix?
